Tassie Cabinets is a local business based in Launceston, Tasmania. They’ve been building high-quality, affordable cabinetry for over seven years, working with both homeowners and builders on kitchens, bathrooms, wardrobes, and more.
The Challenge: Drowning in Paperwork
Before Flowlu, Tassie Cabinets was buried in paperwork—literally. “We had filing cabinets,” says Kevin Jacobs, Director of the Tasmania-based cabinetry business. “A couple of them. And stacks of paper.” With a team of 13 and a growing list of projects for both homeowners and builders, staying organized was getting harder by the week.
Plans would go missing. Notes got scribbled, lost, or never passed on. And trying to track job progress across departments? That was a guessing game.
One Central Place, Finally
Kevin knew they needed a shift. Not another tool that promised more than it delivered—he’d tried that already. He wanted a central place for his entire team to work from. Something paperless. Something simple. And most importantly, something everyone could access, even if they were out on-site or in the factory.
So he gave Flowlu a go.
“It took just a few days to get it working the way we wanted,” he says. “We were up and running fast, and it was easy to set up.” Within a week, the whole team was using it: project managers, sales, even factory staff. No more chasing updates through emails or wondering if someone printed the right version of a plan. Everything was in one spot—client info, quotes, job details, timelines, tasks.
But here’s the real win: less back-and-forth. Less confusion. “It’s saved us a lot of time and money,” Kevin says. “We’re not losing paperwork. We’re more organized. And we can actually share information across departments without any fuss.”
What They're Using—and Why It Works
Tassie Cabinets relies on four key Flowlu features:
Sales Pipelines & Contacts: Everything related to customer interactions is logged and visible—no more missed follow-ups or forgotten calls. Leads are tracked properly, and every builder or homeowner has their own digital trail.
Project Workflows: These are pre-made project templates that give the team a ready-to-go structure. They load up the workflow, assign the team, and get moving. Everyone knows the steps, who's doing what, and what comes next—without reinventing the wheel.
Task Tracking: Deadlines are tracked, tasks are assigned, and nothing falls through the cracks. Team members know what’s on their plate, and Kevin doesn’t have to chase updates.
Workflow Automation: Routine processes are now on autopilot. Less manual effort means more time for the actual work—designing, building, delivering.
Another big one for them? Making sure multiple people could access everything—anytime, anywhere—on a phone or tablet. That mobile flexibility made it easier for teams in the factory and out in the field to stay connected and in sync.
So Why Flowlu?
There are plenty of platforms out there, and Kevin tried some. But what made Kevin choose Flowlu over the others? It had everything they needed in one place—and it was simple to use. That combination sealed the deal.
We have all the information for all jobs in one location. It has CRM, project management, file storage, and is easy to use.

Tassie Cabinets didn’t just trade paper for pixels. They cleared the clutter—mentally and physically—and built a system that actually works for their team. And now? They’ve got more time to focus on what they do best: building great things.
